The Supernatural announcement doesn’t come as a huge surprise. Last month, it was reported that showrunner Sera Gamble would be stepping down to focus on development. Although the show had not yet been renewed for Season 8 at that time, a replacement — former co-producer Jeremy Carver — was already named, a good sign that the series would be back. Producer Todd Aronauer added fuel to the fire this Thursday morning by tweeting, then deleting, word of the show’s renewal.

“I have told [executive producer] Sera [Gamble] that I would love to come back next season if that is something that works out for everybody’s schedule,” he said. “If it’s in the cards, it would be great. I don’t know yet how things are going to play out.”

The CW also has several pilots under consideration for next season’s schedule, including Arrow, Beauty and the Beast (with Smallville’s Kristin Kreuk), First Cut (with The Good Wife‘s Mamie Gummer and Smallville‘s Justin Hartley), The Carrie Diaries and the Hunger Games-esque The Selection.

Why… Why 90210 gets more audience than Gossip Girl. The Gossip Girl characters are iconic but 90210’s are so boring, and predictable. Naomi’s character is the only reason that 90210 still exists, the rest sucks. Gossip have many lovers and haters but truly fans of Serena, Dan, Nate, Chuck and Blair.

Great news on Vampire Diaries and Supernatural renewals. But looking for renewals of Nikita, Hart of Dixie and Secret Circle. But also looking forward to some of the pilots. CW really should go to 3 original hours a night. The “Older” demo they are chasing can have the 10pm hour shows :)

So happy about early renewal for SPN. Although the last two seasons definitely haven’t been the best, I have hope for next season with Carver as showrunner. Now, fingers crossed for Cas coming back as a regular. One thing the last season have sorely been missing imo is other regulars for the boys to interact with, instead of just non-important secondary characters that we never see again. I love Sam and Dean, but they need others to bounce off on to grow as characters and I love Misha in all his incarnations. Oh, and bring back baby, too, please.

Since The CW have so many great new pilots maybe the clean house and does not renew any of the remaining shows? That would be a bold move! I am so freaking excited about 90210, it’s become so great!! And to all of you who says 90210 sucks, how do yo know the show sucks? Are you watching it any way? ;)

Ha Adam! I agree if people say a show sucks then do not watch it and do not comment on it. I do not watch Supernatural so I am not commenting on it! I am happy about TVD and 90210 and personally I want HOD, Ringer and TSC renewed too but I have a feeling that HOD will be cancelled and form what others have said on here in the past and other sites maybe Nikita. The CW has 6 pilots so I think they will bring in 3 of them and then only cancel 2 shows as OTH has already been cancelled. If GG gets a shortened last season then it can be split with ANTM. So then the would either cancel just 1 show or add another pilot. Last fall we just got 3 of the new shows (HOD, Ringer and TSC)so I think they will do the same this fall.

I am happy about 90210 and TVD!
Well then next season should be the last for Supernatural too then!
CW has 10 slots available, it has renewed 3 shows.
I think they have 6 pilots: Carrie Diaries, Arrow, the Hunger Games one, First Cut, Beauty and the Beast, Cult.
So I really do not see them picking up all 6 as they just picked up 3 last year. So with OTH having ended and Gossip Girl getting a shorter season like OTH did. The I think they will just cancel 1 or 2 shows.
I predict they will be Nikita and Hart of Dixie.
My prediction for next year:
Monday Carrie Diaries (new) & First Cut(new)
Tuesday 90210 and Ringer
Wens Arrow (new)& ANTM (then in the new year they will air GG in ANTM’s place)
Thur TVD and Secret Circle
Fri: Cult (new)& Supernatural
I do not think they will pick up Beauty and the Beast or the show that is supposed to be like the Hunger Games.

I watch HOD, 90210, Ringer, TVD and TSC and while in a perfect world they would all be renewed a couple shows will be cancelled so I think it will be HOD and Nikita.

I have come to the conclusion that those Nikita haters are just people who feel threaten by the greatness of this show. The show does get low ratings, but the writing and acting is outstanding, it could take out any of the shows in that network if it gets the proper promotion. So Nikita haters suck it the show is the BEST

Out of the 3 new shows, Hart of Dixie deserve to be renew it was the only show that started with 1.80 million viewers and held it steady for more then half of the season. since its long break it has come back to less viewers but overrall it still doing way better then the Secret Circle which made making just 1 million for a month now and Ringer also started with 2 million but drop to 1 million and lower demos then HOD. so I believe HOD should be the only new show to be renewed and I watched all 3 shows but the most deserving of a season 2 has to be Hart of Dixie.

BTW I barely could stand this season of 90210 but I am happy it got renew and hope maybe this could be the final season

Gossip Girl should get a final season as well, i stopped like in season 3 but I think it should get a final season

I have watched 90210 several times to give it a chance and seriously, it sucks. And for all the fans offended by this comment… it’s my opinion, deal with it.
And I heard that The CW does want more adult audience so I think that the will cancel a lot of shows this season. Opposite of an earlier comment, I think that the shows that will get renewed will be Hart Of Dixie or/and Nikita (The Secret Circle is also a posibility). On the other hand, agreeing with the same comment I also heard that they will do 13-episode seasons so I think (AND HOPE) that Gossip Girl will be one, I loved GG, but it has gotten so crappy, even fans of the show know it, so it will be good if they wrap up with a 13 episode season, but if it gets cancelled like officially, I will be glad. I feel like it’s just a waste of space.
Also, I heard that the pilot that already got picked up is The Selection. (The Carrie Diaries is also a pretty sure thing), i’m rooting for those 2 and also for Cult, I don’t give a sh*t about Arrow, or Beauty and the Beast. Shelter might be cool, but who knows…

Extremely glad for Supernatural, I just really hope it does’nt end on season 8, now that they got a new staff, they should be around for two more seasons, I mean, you’re not hiring a new staff for just one season, that would be ridiculous. I want Cass and Bobby on season 8, and the Impala of course. I can’t to see how Jeremy will handle season 8, I got my faith on him to make it a GREAT season.

It’s really not though, because of how the CW evaluates their programming. They take into consideration the total (live) viewers, online viewing, website traffic, DVR viewing, and overseas sales – a category in which Nikita is very strong. Combine that with low Ringer ratings and a Sarah Michelle Gellar pregnancy, and Nikita most certainly has a leg up over it.

Yay for Supernatural!!! I hope it gets 10 seasons and a movie and that Misha/Castiel comes back on a regular basis :) 90210 was good in season 2 when the show was rebooted but has steadily been going downhill since the break-up of Liam and Naomi and absolutely no decent storylines aside from Naomi’s rape at the beginning of season 3. Since it’s renewed, I really hope the showrunners sort out the kinks and take a page from the original renaissance of the show, bringing back core couples and deeper storylines. I am fed up of Naomi, the only good thing about the show, being paired up with ridiculous guest stars. Liam has no chemistry with anyone else and I’m not sure why they keep forcing him with Annie and Silver. Liomi FTW!

So these three combined with ANTM they have six slots. I can almost guarantee that GG will get a shortened final season (possible mid season replacment or even summer). I bet HoD will get picked up and they’ll have room for 3 of the new shows (Please pick Cult and Arrow- they do star CW vets after all).

Very happy about Supernatural, I love Sera but I am looking forward to seeing what Jeremy Carver does with the show. I’m not at all interested in seeing Castiel again but I hope Bobby is back next year. And Sheriff Mills also. Also chuffed to bits about TVD and I’d like to echo the comment earlier about having Elijah back as a regular next year. This season with Elijah, Klaus, Rebekah etc has been fantastic. The whole Damon, Elena, Stefan love triangle stuff has been getting tedious and soap opera-y but The Originals storylines have been fabulous.

I watch TSC and HOD, so I’d like them renewed. Though I’m always saddened when fans lose their favourite show so I can’t wish for something else on the bubble to go. However it would be nice if they canned ANTM to save one of these shows – reality might be cheap but Tyra and her cray-cray just aint what it used to be.

Happy to hear that Supernatural and The Vampire Diaries both got renewed.
If Gossip Girl gets another season (let’s face it, it probably will), I’m hoping it will be the last. The show is just plain ridiculous now.
